Introducing the CAMPsite...

for Community Access Media People around Australia. Grab your
appropriate beverage and take a seat by the fire, this is a camping ground
for discussing the issues in community media.

As the flames lick and crackle, you can chat with people in community
radio and TV stations, and anyone who wants to join in, about production,
policy, volunteers, management, funding, technical issues, and whether
wood fires are environmentally correct.

Well, it's really just an email mailing list, but a little imagination
never hurts. Here's how it works:

If you subscribe to the CAMP list, you'll get in your email everything
anyone else says on the list.

If you send a message to the list, everyone else in the group can hear
what you say - automatically via email.

This is a concrete way for everyone in community media in Australia
to get together and discuss things online. Brought to you by the CBAA and
Pegasus Networks, with help from the DSS Community Information Network
project. I am maintaining it on a voluntary basis on behalf of the
CBAA.

To see what more than 100 people around the fire are talking about,
without joining in, check out Curtin University's campfire
archive.

There are three ways to get on and off this list:

A trickier way is to send a message to majordomo@peg.apc.org,
